Tips for getting the perfect Havelock vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are high season in Beaufort. To book the largest rental within your budget, we recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Havelock area travel guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking the best Havelock vacation home:

• Start by having your family agree to the best dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Otter Banks Retreat- Sound Front Home in Beaufort, NC has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If not, email the property owner before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation group.
• If there's a particular Havelock attraction you love, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your stay, note any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the rental manager right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
